HO SCALE TRACK FAQS

WHY SHOULD I USE ATLAS TRACK?Atlas began with HO scale track products 60 years ago when our founder, Stephen J. Schaffan, Jr. created and patented flexible track and popularized the HO sectional track system that became the industry standard. World-famous, affordable Atlas Snap-Track®, Super-Flex Track®

and Custom-Line® turnouts are made from quality, injection-molded plastic and nickel silver rail for maximum reliability.

WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ATLAS HO CODE 83 AND HO CODE 100 TRACK?The “code” of track refers to the height of the rail in thousandths of an inch. Code 83 track is .083” high, while Code 100 is .100” high. The choice of discriminating modelers, Atlas Code 83 track has fine, brown ties, whereas Code 100 has slightly thicker black ties. Code 83 is consid-

ered the more realistic, or prototypical, of the two. Atlas carries a full line of functional pieces in both styles.

Code 83 and Code 100 track can easily be used together with Atlas transition joiners.

NOTE: Some owners of older, European-made models may experience difficulties with Code 83 track due to flanges that are too large. There are two remedies – replacing the trucks on your rolling stock, or installing currently available commercial wheel sets.

WHAT SHOULD I KNOW ABOUT ATLAS ROADBED TRACK?The Atlas HO True-Track® line of roadbed track, (see pgs. 50-52), has Code 83 track sections snapped into gray, graveled roadbed bases. The easiest of all Atlas track to assemble, it can be set up virtually anywhere because it does not need to be secured to a board, making it a favorite for floor or Christmas tree layouts.

Atlas True-Track® is more versatile than other roadbed track systems as the track can be removed and used separately, providing options for your railroad’s future.

WHERE SHOULD I START?Atlas makes it easy to start and finish with success. Begin by choosing a location, size and shape for your layout. You’ll find a wealth of ideas in our instruction books and how-to videos produced by Atlas, and avail-able on our web site, at www.atlasrr.com

Developing a relationship with your local hobby shop canenhance and assist your model railroading experience. Utilizing the advanced Atlas International Dealer Locator on our website (below), you can view and download directions to hobby shops in your area. If you choose not to buy all components at once, you could divide the layout into independent sections, then expand your railroad at your discretion.

TT-1 WAYNE SHORT LINEFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6’ Ho True-Track® Item #10037-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, bumpers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electri-cal components

The Wayne Short Line is a compact layout that has the basic necessi-ties for operation: a passing track and two sidings where cars can be spotted. The loop allows for trains to be running continuously. Throw-ing the turnouts allows a varied route. If you’ve started with a True-Track® Starter Set, this is the ideal layout to expand to.

TT-2 HILLSIDE JUNCTIONFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 5’ x 9’ Ho True-Track® Item #10038-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, a crossing, bumpers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, neces-sary electrical components

This layout is a modified figure eight. The grade crossing adds inter-est as the wheels “click-clack” across the diamonds. There is a small yard and four spurs at which industries can be located and cars can be spotted.





LAYOuTS

TT-3 MARTIN’S CREEK & SOUTHERNFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Ho True-Track® Item #10039-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, bumpers, insu-lated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

The Martin’s Creek & Southern adds a passing siding and a dogleg to the basic oval, increasing interest and slightly lengthening the main line run. The spurs on the inside of the oval, along with the one in the dogleg, add switching locations.

TT-4 GREAT ATLANTIC TRUNKFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Ho True-Track® Item #10040-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, bumpers, insu-lated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

This layout recreates a double track main line railroad. It will allow you to run two trains at the same time in opposite directions without having to worry about throw-ing turnouts or selector switches to keep the trains moving.

TT-5 CROxTON TERMINALFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Ho True-Track® Item #10041-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, bumpers, insu-lated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

This layout could represent a small yard on a secondary line or regional railroad. If you model the 1950s-1960s, the yard can be used to represent a piggy back terminal, where the trailers are loaded “circus style” by driving them up ramps and onto flat cars.

TT-6 RARITAN BAY & NORTH SHOREFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 5’ x 10’ Ho True-Track® Item #10042-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, a crossing, bum-pers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

The Raritan Bay and North Shore is slightly larger than the previously shown lay-outs. The spacing of the tracks allows room for a variety of scenery you can add to enhance and personalize your layout. This layout can be run as two separate railroads using their own ovals, or as a single line in a folded figure eight.





LAYOuTS

TT-7 NORTHSIDE VALLEY LINEFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 7’ Ho True-Track® Item #10043-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, a Pier Set, bumpers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical com-ponents

The Northside Valley Line features over-and-under operation with a passing siding, which can be used to run one train around a car or another short train. Combining True-Track® and Code 83 track on piers, this simple yet appealing layout provides modelers with hours of operating fun.

TT-8 JESSEVILLE JUNCTIONFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 10’ Ho True-Track® Item #10044-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, a crossing, bum-pers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

This layout offers a host of switching and operating possibilities. The layout also features a diagonal track slicing across to connect the main line so that the train can be reversed through the use of an Atlas Controller.

TT-9 EAGLE ROCK ROUTEFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Ho True-Track® Item #10045-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, bumpers, insu-lated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

The Eagle Rock Route has two main line tracks and plenty of operating scenarios where trains can be run independently of each other in as little as a 4’ x 8’ space. Crossovers are provided at two areas so that trains can change from one main line track to another.

TT-9A ExPANDED EAGLE ROCK ROUTEFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Ho True-Track® Item #10046-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, crossings, bum-pers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical components

The expanded version of the Eagle Rock Route adds a reversing loop and a pair of “diamonds” (crossings). This allows a train to be reversed, and the “local” switching the sidings will need to be in the clear when the “through train” comes barrelling through the crossings.





LAYOuTS

TT-10 SHIPYARD INDUSTRIALFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 8’ x 10’ Ho True-Track® Item #10047-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, crossings, bumpers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary electrical com-ponents

This layout is basically a single-track main line with two passing sidings, al-lowing trains to run around each other. The use of diamonds on the center of the layout recreates a busy railroad junction theme. Its “L” shape is designed for a 4’ x 8’ board joined to a 4’ x 6’ board. Three additional sidings can be used for switching local industry, while various operating patterns can be developed for trains to clear each other while a local freight works the yard or sidings.

TT-10A ExPANDED SHIPYARDINDUSTRIALFrom Book #15: Blueprints for 10 True-Track® LayoutsMinimum Table Size Required: 8’ x 10’ Ho True-Track® Item #10048-TTProducts Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, cross-ings, bumpers, insulated joiners and terminal joiners, a Selector, necessary elec-trical components

Expand your Shipyard Industrial layout by adding a reversing section, in-creasing the complexity and interest of operation with extra options that let you utilize more of your fleet. This is a layout for model railroaders who seek optimum action with ample opportunities for personalized enhance-ments. Let your imagination soar with the possibilities!

HO CODE 100 CUSTOM-LINE® TURNOUTSAtlas’ Custom-Line® Turnouts are prototypically accurate and feature blackened metal frogs and rivetless switch points that provide superior electrical conductivity. These turnouts can be powered by one of three methods: an under-table switch machine; a standard remote switch ma-chine - Code 100; or a standard manual switch machine - Code 100. All Custom-Line® Turnouts have the same geometry as the current Atlas Code 83 versions, for drop-in installation in Atlas’ and other layout plans.

Item #282 - Custom-Line® Mark IV #4 Turnout, Right Hand

Custom-Line® Turnout Angles• #4 Turnout Angle = 12° 50’ • #6 Turnout Angle = 9° 30’• #8 Turnout Angle = 7° 9’• Wye Turnout Angle = 19° 12’

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A #4 AND A #6 CUSTOM-LINE® TURNOUT?The difference is the angle at which the two tracks diverge, or split. With #4 turnouts, the tracks diverge at a sharper angle than the #6’s. Therefore, the type of turnout you may use may be determined by the space you have for your layout.








Code 83 Track can beeasily used with Code 100 Track, using our Transition

Joiners, Item #551!

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CUSTOM-LINE® TURNOUTS AND SNAP-SWITCHES?1. Custom-Line® Turnouts are #4, #6 or Wye turnouts. The track section of the Atlas #4 Turnout splits at an angle of 12 degrees and 50 minutes; for #6 Switches that angle is 9 degrees, 30 minutes; and for Wye Switches it is 19 degrees, 12 minutes. This angle determines how sharp of a turn the switch (and therefore your trains) will make. Snap-Switches have a curved leg equal to an 18” radius. When combined with the included 1/3-18” radius section, it matches a full section of 18” radius curve with a 1-1/2” piece opposite the switch, resulting in a complete oval (a 1-1/2” fitter piece must be added on the opposite side of the layout when building an oval).

2. Custom-Line® Turnouts have metal frogs that can be powered if necessary. Snap-Switches have plastic frogs which cannot be powered. NOTE: A Snap-Switch and a #4 Custom-Line® Turnout are not interchangeable in Atlas layout plans.





HO CODE 100 SNAP-SWITCHES - REMOTE CONTROL These turnouts have a remote control switch machine attached so you can wire the turnout to be “thrown” (changing the direction of the rail), from your control panel, rather than from the switch itself. Comes with a 1/3-18” radius section, making the curved leg equal to a regular 18” radius section. To add a passing track and siding, simply replace a 9” straight section. When replacing an 18” radius curved section with an Atlas Snap-Switch, add a 1-1/2” straight section to the opposite side.

Item #851 - Remote Snap-Switch, Right Hand






HO CODE 100 SNAP-SWITCHES - MANUAL Manual turnouts can only be “thrown” (changing the direction of the rail), by flipping a lever on the turnout by hand. Manual Snap-Switches can be easily converted to remote control with #52 Left hand and #53 Right hand switch machines. Manual Snap-Switches come with a manual switch machine.

Item #860 - Manual Snap-Switch, Left Hand

HO CODE 100 SWITCH MACHINESManual and remote switch machines are both offered in Code 100. With a manual switch machine attached to your turnout, you can flip a lever by hand and change the direction of the rail. On the other hand, snap-on remote switch machines will quickly and easily convert any Atlas Code 100 HO manual switch to remote control. With a remote control switch, you can wire the switch to be “thrown” (changing the direction of the rail) from your control panel, rather than from the switch itself.

This railroad introduces the use of two separate power packs and the Atlas Selector to give independent control in the various sections of track separated by insulated rail joiners. Therefore, two trains can run at the same time, with each running at the speed and direction deter-mined by the power pack to which the Selector has connected its block. As the dispatcher of this railroad, you will be kept busy scheduling movements.

HO-3 UP-AND-OVER IN 4’ x 6’From Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6’ Code 83 Item #10003-83, Code 100 Item #10003Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, bridge piers, bridge, bridge set, terminal sections, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The HO-3 uses the Atlas Pier Set to provide two-level operation in the minimum space of 4 x 6 feet. Since this is a one train railroad, the wiring consists of only two connections from your power pack.

HO-4 TWICE AROUND IN 4’ x 6’From Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6’ Code 83 Item #10004-83, Code 100 Item #10004Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This twice-around plan lets you get double the length of main line in a given space. Using scenic items between the two laps of the main line, you can create the impression that the train is covering different territory in its second trip around the layout. This plan allows for two-train operation.

HO-5 THE SENIOR TWICE-AROUNDFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10005-83, Code 100 Item #10005Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This layout is a lengthened HO-4 with an additional siding. The extra two feet allows longer trains and longer runs.

HO-6 THE TRUNK LINEFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10006-83, Code 100 Item #10006Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This 4’ x 8’ railroad features a double-track main line on which long trains can operate continuously. On this railroad you can switch the spur tracks to add variety.





HO-7 THE JUNIOR PRETzELFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10007-83, Code 100 Item #10007Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, termi-nal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

Since it is built on an extended platform, there are many possibilities with the HO-7; such as longer runs, longer trains and more realistic operations.

HO-8 THE SUPER PRETzELFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 8’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10008-83, Code 100 Item #10008Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This layout accommodates a very long main line with three passing tracks. With such a long line, you will want to work out a simple timetable, first for two trains running in opposite directions, then later for two trains following each other, with the faster one overtaking and passing the slower at the different sidings.

HO-9 FIGURE EIGHT WITH SPURSFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10009-83, Code 100 Item #10009Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, termi-nal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The Basic Figure Eight plan makes an interesting operation because of the way a train appears to reverse its direction as it proceeds. This layout adds three spur tracks to serve local industries and keep a local freight train busy.

HO-10 THE YARDMASTERFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10010-83, Code 100 Item #10010Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

If you prefer main line operation, you’ll have fun running this railroad. On the HO-10 layout, the little yard is complete with a switching lead on which one locomotive can work while classifying cars. If short cuts are being handled, the main track can be kept clear for a second train while switching movements are made into and out of the yard.





HO-11 THE OUT-AND-BACKFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10011-83, Code 100 Item #10011Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This layout lets you carry out, in miniature, the process of sorting freight cars and making up a train in the yard. A second train, circling the main line, can operate clockwise or counterclockwise since this plan includes reversing loops and sec-tions.

HO-12 THE UP-AND-OVER DOGBONEFrom Book #9: Beginner’s Guide to HO Model RailroadingMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 10’ Code 83 Item #10012-83, Code 100 Item #10012Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, rerailers, terminal sections, bridge piers, bridge, bridge set, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

This track plan uses the twisted dogbone pattern to provide a run of approximately 50 feet (almost a mile in HO scale) in the space of two 4 x 6 foot panels.

HO-13 SIMPLE OVAL WITH SPURSFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6.5’ Code 83 Item #10013-83, Code 100 Item #10013Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

Featured in the HO-13 are three industry spurs, two of which can be switched by a train running clockwise around the oval. The third siding at the upper right faces in the other direction, requiring your crew to leave the train between the switches of the passing track at the left end, run the engine around the train and couple up be-hind the caboose; then push the proper cars into the spur, reversing the maneuver to get your train back in order.

HO-14 IMPROVING THE SIMPLE OVALFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 7’ Code 83 Item #10014-83, Code 100 Item #10014Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the nec-essary electrical components

The HO-14 layout has three industries on its two long spurs. One, called a “switch-back” spur, requires your locomotive to make several moves to get a car to the proper industry location. This can keep two operators busy and interested.





HO-15 MINIMUM-SIzE TWICE AROUNDFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 7’ Code 83 Item #10015-83, Code 100 Item #10015Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The farther your train travels before it retraces the same track, the more interesting your trip! Therefore, a long main line run was the goal in planning the HO-15 layout. This plan offers the most action in the least amount of space for a twice-around railroad, fitting into a minimum of 4’ x 7’ space.

HO-16 ExPANDING YOUR 4’ x 6’From Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 10’ Code 83 Item #10016-83, Code 100 Item #10016Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

For this layout we spread out the HO-13, giving it a long main line and three double-ended passing tracks. This allows you to run two trains which can meet and keep going without stopping. The local freight now has five locations to set out and pick up cars.

HO-17 HOBOKEN SHORE RAILROADFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 15” x 10.5’ Code 83 Item #10017-83, Code 100 Item #10017Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, bumpers, rail joiners and the neces-sary electrical components

On a per-square-foot basis, a shelf-type layout offers an amazing amount of opera-tion. The HO-17 track plan fits on a shelf 10’6” long and only 15” wide. Operation involves taking cars brought in by a main line connection and distributing them to a variety of industries. The railroad is deliberately arranged for a great deal of back and forth switching needed to reach some tracks.

HO-18 RAHWAY VALLEY RAILROADFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4.5’ x 7’ Code 83 Item #10018-83, Code 100 Item #10018Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

Don’t presume that a small point-to-point layout must be long and thin. This track plan has a terminal at each end, a short main line run, a midpoint siding where two trains can pass and even a turntable. The turntable serves to complete the run around trackage for one of the small yards. The other terminal has a conventional double-ended siding for its runaround. (This layout is also known as Point-to-Point in 4.5’ x 7’)





HO-19 NARROW SWITCHING RAILROAD FOR TIGHT PLACESFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 11’ Code 83 Item #10019-83, Code 100 Item #10019Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch ma-chines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical com-ponents

This switching layout is perfect for those who enjoy creating intricate scenery which can be examined and admired close-up. Another nice feature of this plan is it allows two switchers to work at the same time.

HO-20 THE OUT-AND-BACKFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 12’ Code 83 Item #10020-83, Code 100 Item #10020Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electri-cal components

The HO-20 features a stub yard with a continuous main line oval. On this railroad you can run loops around the oval, meeting other trains on the passing track at the right end of the track plan. A trip through the reversing cut-off at the oval’s center will turn your train around and return it to the yard, which can then represent the other end of the line.

HO-21 THE “WATERWINGS”From Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 11.5’ Code 83 Item #10021-83, Code 100 Item #10021Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

“Waterwings” is a simple oval re-shaped into a waterwings configuration with a double crossover having reversing connections in both directions. On this plan, your trains can move in alternate directions. A good feature of this railroad is the narrow “waist” of the tabletop which offers easy access to far portions of the layout.

HO-22 GRADE CROSSING DELUxEFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 13’ Code 83 Item #10022-83, Code 100 Item #10022Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, bumpers, rail joiners and the neces-sary electrical components

On the Grade Crossing Deluxe, two single-track lines cross each other as well as a double-track line with cutoffs, allowing each train to pass from one line to the other in various ways. The layout is comprised of two separate figure-8 loops, one primarily operating counter-clockwise and the other clockwise. They intertwine so that they resemble the two lines of a single double-track railroad from the lower right corner of the layout to the tunnel mouth at the left rear.





HO-23 FOLDED DOGBONE WITH BRANCHFrom Book #11: HO Layouts for Every SpaceMinimum Table Size Required: 5.5’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10023-83, Code 100 Item #10023Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wye, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the nec-essary electrical components

This main line starts as a dogbone, with two parallel sides extending from a loop at one end to a similar loop at the other. These end loops are partially concealed and located one over the other in the center of the layout to save space.

HO-24 SIMPLICITY AND GREAT PLAINSFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6’ Code 83 Item #10024-83, Code 100 Item #10024Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wye, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary elec-trical components

This layout can be placed into operation with a minimum amount of effort. It fea-tures single-track on its simple oval main line. With two passing tracks available, each with a turnout at each end, two trains can run continuously in opposite direc-tions.

HO-25 GREAT EASTERN TRUNKFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10025-83, Code 100 Item #10025Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The Great Eastern Trunk attempts, in the very minimum of space, to give some-thing of the flavor of heavy duty, main line railroading. The main line is double track, becoming triple track at one end by means of two interesting junctions.

HO-26 SOUTHSIDE CONNECTINGFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 15” x 10’ Code 83 Item #10026-83, Code 100 Item #10026Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wye, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The vital mission of the Southside Connecting is carried out in a small space and never involves high speeds, but can keep two engines busy around the clock. Cars received from connections to the yard at the right are spotted at the widely diversified industries crowded into the switching district served by the little com-mon carrier.





HO-27 TRANSBAY INTERWOVENFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 6’ x 10’ Code 83 Item #10027-83, Code 100 Item #10027Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, turntable, pier set, bridge piers, Warren Bridge Kit, Deck Bridge Kit, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

A nice feature of this railroad is it provides an up-and-over section of main line. The Transbay Interwoven does this in the simplest possible fashion by taking advantage of the easy construction of elevated track provided by the Atlas Pier Set. This layout is planned as a “twin 4 x 6”.

HO-28 GRANITE GORGE AND NORTHERNFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 5’ x 9’ Code 83 Item #10028-83, Code 100 Item #10028Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wye, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, pier set, bridge piers, Warren Bridge Kit, Deck Bridge Kit, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The differences in elevation among the tracks on the HO-28 not only allow lines to pass over and under each other, but make for interesting scenes of the type really worth attempting to portray in a model railroad. Doing this requires something more than a simple flat-top table, so the Granite Gorge and Northern secures its varied grades and contours using “cookie-cutter” construction.

HO-29 THE CENTRAL MIDLANDFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 10’ x 12’ Code 83 Item #10029-83, Code 100 Item #10029Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, pier girders, bridge piers, Warren Bridge Kit, Deck Bridge Kit, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The HO-29 features a main line over 1-1/3 scale miles long. There’s a six-track yard long enough to hold whole trains, and a double-track wye leading into it. The open-grid construction allows your scenery to extend below track level as well as above.

HO-30 THE MORGAN VALLEY RAILROADFrom Book #13: Seven Step-by-Step HO RailroadsMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 6’ Code 83 Item #10030-83, Code 100 Item #10030Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, bumpers, rail joiners and the nec-essary electrical components

The HO-30 offers a variety of operating possibilities not normally found in a limited space. It’s an ideal layout for beginners, yet can hold the interest of more experi-enced modelers as well. The entire design of this layout is unique in that it allows for easy expansion.





HO-31 WATERLEVEL WESTERNFrom Book #14: HO King Size Plan BookMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10031-83, Code 100 Item #10031Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, crossings, turntable, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

An excellent choice for a second layout, the Waterlevel Western features the oper-ating and scenic interest of two grade crossings in a twice-around main line, with room for a turntable and industry trackage. Basic flat-top platform construction.

HO-32 APEx AND HYPOTENUSEFrom Book #14: HO King Size Plan BookMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 10’ Code 83 Item #10032-83, Code 100 Item #10032Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Snap-Switches, turnouts, Super-Flex Track®, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, a crossing, pier set, Plate Girder Bridge, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The space-saving rearrangement of a single 4’ x 8’ plywood sheet to make every square foot count, with an extra-long main line, plenty of spur tracks and the extra interest of up-and-over trackage.

HO-33 PLYWOOD SUMMIT LINESFrom Book #14: HO King Size Plan BookMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10033-83, Code 100 Item #10033Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Super-Flex Track®, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wyes, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, turntable, bridge piers, Warren Bridge Kit, Plate Girder Bridge, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

On the Plywood Summit Lines, fully-engineered “cookie-cutter” construction and exceptionally compact main line and yard arrangement, leaves room for branch and wye - real point-to-point operation.

HO-34 RANCOCAS HARBOR BELTFrom Book #14: HO King Size Plan BookMinimum Table Size Required: 8’ x 8’ Code 83 Item #10034-83, Code 100 Item #10034Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Super-Flex Track®, Snap-Switches, turnouts, wye, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, pier set, bridge piers, pier girders, Warren Bridge Kit, Deck Bridge Kit, Plate Girder Bridge, bumpers, rail joiners and the neces-sary electrical components

A larger, L-shaped railroad, featuring the simplest construction of both foundation and trackage that is suitable for the first-layout, or more advanced use. Railroading on a long up-and-over main line and yard, centered about a harbor and its industries.





HO-35 BERKSHIRE VALLEY ROUTEFrom Book #14: HO King Size Plan BookMinimum Table Size Required: 4’ x 12’ Code 83 Item #10035-83, Code 100 Item #10035Products Required: Straight sections, radius sections, Super-Flex Track®, Snap-Switches, turnouts, switch machines, rerailers, terminal sections, turn-table, bridge piers, pier girders, Warren Bridge Kit, Deck Bridge Kit, Plate Girder Bridge, bumpers, rail joiners and the necessary electrical components

The HO-35 is another cookie-cutter railroad featuring longer straight-aways. It contains a double-track main line through scenic country, with a fully-equipped yard to provide for train makeup and out-and-back routing.
